Is anything more precious than our sight?
Macular Degeneration (MD) is the leading cause of blindness in Australia, affecting central vision. MD is primarily age related and most frequently affects people over the age of 50. One in seven people over the age of 50 are affected by the disease and the incidence increases with age. It is sometimes referred to as Age Related Macular Degeneration or 'AMD'.
This website is designed to promote awareness of Macular Degeneration and features a wide array of information and resources. The site offers a text only version for people with vision impairment. It is compatible with Jaws and other reading programs. There is also the added option of increasing the font size on each page.
